SLPR configuration examples

Single host

Figure 70 (page 180)

provides an example of when control is denied to the paircreate and

raidscan

commands in the following cases:

The volume described on RMINST1 is different from the SLPR of the command device, so the
paircreate

command cannot control the paired volume.

The specified port is different from the SLPR of the command device, so the raidscan -p
CL3-A

command cannot scan any ports that are defined as SLPR#N.

Figure 70 SLPR configuration on a single host

To operate SLPR#N, assign the command device. If RMINST1 has a command device for SLPR#N,
the paircreate command is permitted. However, the raidscan -p CL3-A command (via
RMINST0) is unable to scan a port, because the specified port is different than the SLPR of the
command device. In this case, -p CL3-A must be operated via RMINST1, as shown in the following
example.

Figure 71 Operation across SLPRs using two command devices on a single host

To operate SLPR#N, share the command device. If RMINST1 has a shared command device for
SLPR#N, the paircreate command is permitted. Additionally, the raidscan -p CL3-A
command (via RMINST0), is permitted to scan a port, because the shared command device has
the Bitmap settings SLPR#M and SLPR#N.
